Field formatting
Martin Böhmer
Ability to format field, for example bold, italic for important field values. Coloring. That should be conditional, for example red for negative and green for positve values. Should be possible for formula fields and their results too. Suffix and prefix are missing for formula fields. Advanced formatting such as showing as a badge, showing with an icon.

Would be possible to have option to have custom fields in Bold. Also ALL text in a view in Bold format or increase font size

Hello Martin Böhmer! I have a few more questions for you:
- Can you provide specific examples of where you would like to see these formatting options applied within the application?
- Are there any specific icons you would like to see associated with certain field values?
- Could you clarify what you mean by 'showing as a badge'? Are there specific conditions or values that should trigger this display?

You are really quick and you really know your product - thumbs up for that.
Well my answers:
- For example title-field is more important than others. I would like to format it bold because of that. Or take colors: If for example a number field is less than zero, perhaps I want it to format red based on the condition. Or green it is higher. Maybe it is temperature or humidity: If the values are ok/healthy, I would like to have them green, if they are harming you, they would turn red.
- Icons, well perhaps emoticons or Fontawesome. A number field could show the number of tenants living in a flat. If there is only one, you could of the user icon, if there are more, you could have the multiuser-icon.
- Like the bootstrap badges: https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.0/components/badge/
If the field entry is new, give it new badge, if it is a week old, give it no badge. If the price is a bargain, give it a SALE-badge.
Hopefully you see where I am heading :-)
